On April 29, 2022, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) and the Research Technical Assistance Center (RTAC) hosted the virtual symposium, “Navigating USAID Partnerships and Funding”. The symposium brought together faculty and staff from over 40 minority serving institutions who sought to learn more about USAID and the different ways to partner with the Agency.
As part of ongoing engagement to address recommendations from the report, the virtual symposium covered an introduction to USAID, discussed ways to find and apply to USAID funding opportunities, and explored USAID linkages to the academic community. The symposium also provided an opportunity for participants to meet and greet USAID staff from across a variety of sectors in breakout rooms, hear from a development diplomat-in-residence, and learn about internationalization and global partnerships from a panel of faculty and staff already engaged in USAID-funded globally focused research.
Please note that USAID’s Research Technical Assistance Center (RTAC) has concluded. The RTAC website will be decommissioned at the end of 2025. Some materials will be transferred to the NORC website and the USAID Learning Lab website in the coming months. However, we recommend downloading any materials you would like to preserve at this time.
